Four ways traders breach the news rule

A pending order fills inside the window. At The5ers, a pending order that triggers inside the restricted window counts as a violation, no matter when it was placed.
A stop loss or take profit executes. At FTMO the restriction covers any order execution, including stop loss and take profit.
The rule starts the day you get funded. FTMO, MyFundedFutures, Take Profit Trader and E8 One have no news restriction in the evaluation and add one on the funded account.
The window is not the same everywhere. 1 minute at Take Profit Trader, 2 at FTMO and The5ers, 5 at Topstep and E8 One.

Each point comes from the firm's own rules page, linked in the card above.

Questions

Is this trading advice?

No. PropBlackout shows timing and each firm's published rule. It never tells you what to trade.

Where do the rules come from?

From each firm's official help center or rules page. Every card links to the source and shows the date we last checked it.

Where do the release times come from?

From the official calendars of the US Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Federal Reserve.

My firm is missing or shows "verifying".

Pick it in the selector if it is there and join the waitlist. We add firms in the order people ask for them, after checking the official rule.

Are you affiliated with any prop firm?

No. We take no commission from any firm.
